The US government banned Anthropic's Mythos and Fable models just after launch so we break down exactly how Project Glass Wing, a panicked AWS engineer, and Dario's failure to communicate with Washington triggered the chaos. Plus: SpaceX's $60B Cursor acquisition, GLM 5.2 beating Google, the Codex trick for running 200 parallel agents, and why your next GPU will ship with a GPS tracker

With OpenAI’s new $500 plan lands alongside reduced subscription value, Theo and Ben explain why cheaper tokens aren’t making DevDay feel like a win, T3 Code's new Orchestrator setup, and more!
Theo and Ben break down a packed week of AI releases, from Opus 5.5's insane release to Grok 4.7 falling short of the hype. They then dig into why post-training matters, where Jev, GPT-6 Sol, and Luna fit, and more!
Theo & Ben break down Jacob Coxon's resignation after three years in pretraining at OpenAI and Anthropic—and his warning that both labs are racing toward AGI and gambling with our lives—along with Dario's latest blog post about pacing the frontier and how Apple's iPhone Duo could have ruined app development (if AI didn't exist).
Theo & Ben break down their latest thoughts on how Astra and Fable 5.1's releases have changed the way they work, how they interact in T3 Code, and then circle back to the latest with Codex usage limits, Gemini 3.8 Flash, Muse Spark 1.3, and the growing gap between model benchmarks and real coding workflows.
